The color of steel is so beautiful. I have only seen this color at an upscale hotel and they were beautiful. I own two pair and I love them. The sheets are definitely deep pocketed. Too deep for my beds which are queen. However I just tuck them in more. Usually queen size sheets are always needing to be pulled tight to even get fit on the bed but these have much more room so the whole mattress gets covered. If they could make them just a bit smaller they would fit the queen mattress with a bit of a topping perfect. However, I tuck them in far so I don't mind the extra material. I feel I am slipping into luxury in these sleek, cool sheets. Definitely will buy more of these in different colors or maybe they same. Worth the money.
